Overview

• Allen left the Week 2 win over the Jets briefly with a profusely bleeding, bruised nose before returning with gauze and finishing the game.
• He practiced Tuesday with a clear visor and said he will probably wear it against the Dolphins to add facial protection.
• Head coach Sean McDermott said Allen’s nose “still looks good” and said there is no confirmation it was broken.
• The team’s first injury report of the week did not include Allen, signaling no limitation for the short-week matchup.
• Teammates joked about the swelling, and despite outside chatter about a broken nose, Allen’s durability remains notable with 107 consecutive starts.
